The cabin was clean and full of amenities including a swing, hot tub, and game room. I also loved that everything was there for us to cook meals! We loved the big windows with the amazing view and my daughter thought she was on top of the world in the loft! I felt like I could stare out those windows forever! During our stay we seen many deer and a black bear! The only improvement I could think of is having a ramp of some kind and/of hand rails along the steps that lead to and from the cabin as at times it was tricky to keep balance on the gravel carrying our belongs to and from. Otherwise, this cabin was amazing and the perfect place to stay on our passing through to Michigan for Thanksgiving! ##### Samantha S.

Romance on the Cartecay more than lived up to its name. My wife and I came here to celebrate our 5 year anniversary. This property was amazing. Michelle left a note about the features of the house, and it was very clean and tidy. The closeness of the river made sleeping very peaceful. It was soothing to listen to it at ALL hours, but put us to sleep at night. We were close to anything anyone would need if you forgot something. Plenty of places to go out to eat, and shop too. I discovered the Cartecay River Brewing Company on the trip, and absolutely LOVED my visits there. Next trip we will be visiting the Winery! Cannot wait to come back to this property before summer's end! Thanks Michelle, and Blue Sky for making this a WONDERFULLY ROMANTIC occasion for both of us! We will be back! I was very pleased to get a call on our 2nd morning, asking if we made it safely, and if we needed anything. It was a pleasure to communicate with Sherry. She was kind, and attentive. She made us feel very welcomed. ##### Charles Froelich This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Courtney Brown 27 Mar 2020 #### W We had to reschedule our wedding ceremony, but we kept our reservation and it was so nice to get away!
